1z0-084 Exam Dumps : Oracle Database 19c: Performance Management and Tuning

Statspack is a performance diagnostic tool provided by Oracle prior to the introduction of the Automatic Workload Repository (AWR). At snap level 6, Statspack captures the following types of statistics:

• A (Correct):Parent and child latches are captured. Latch statistics provide information about contention for latches, which are low-level serialization mechanisms used by Oracle.
• E (Correct):Enqueue statistics, which provide information on the waits for locks that manage the concurrency between users.
• F (Correct):Segment-level statistics, which provide detailed information on database segments such as tables, indexes, etc., to identify I/O and contention issues.
• C (Incorrect):While optimizer execution plans are an essential aspect of performance tuning, detailed execution plan capture is not part of the Statspack report at level 6.
• D (Incorrect):Plan usage data refers to how frequently a plan is being used, which is more associated with AWR and not typically captured in Statspack reports.

For this SQL statement and output, we can analyze theEVENTcolumn to understand the type of wait:

B. The event "SQL*Net message from client" typically indicates that the session is waiting for a response from the client. This can be due to a network issue, user response, or an application processing delay.

E. The event "SQL*Net message from client" also implies that the session is idle waiting for the client (a user or an application) to send a request to the server. This event usually indicates that the session is not actively working but is instead waiting for the next command.

F. The wait event "enq: TX - row lock contention" suggests that session 9822 is waiting for a row-level lock held by another session. If the holding session issues a COMMIT or ROLLBACK, the lock will be released, and session 9822 will stop waiting. Since this session is experiencing row lock contention, it implies it's waiting for a specific transaction to complete.

For a Standard Edition production database, the Statspack tool is available to diagnose performance problems. The Automatic Workload Repository (AWR) and its related tools like AWR Compare Periods report and SQL Performance Analyzer are features of the Oracle Database Enterprise Edition and are not available in Standard Edition. Database Replay is also a feature of the Enterprise Edition. Statspack is a performance diagnostic tool provided for earlier versions and Standard Editions of the Oracle Database to collect, store, and analyze performance data.
